    Artist History
    I have been playing guitar since the age of 14 and writing songs almost as long. Formed first band (4 months after first picking up a guitar) called "Mess-Age". Played a few gigs in the Lanarkshire area before and after our singer (Miss Carolyn G Robertson) was taken to be with the Lord in the winter of 1998. Throughout, I was constantly doing solo work and writing more songs than you can shake a stick at (all of which I have now forgotten). I relocated to Perth in the summer of 1999 after spending a few weeks leading worship at a youth camp for a church in Wichita, Kansas (The camp itself was in Arkansas). The reason for the move, to study music performance at Perth College. By the summer of 2001, I had successfully completed both NC and HNC courses in music performance, (in the latter receiving 7 merits out of 13 modules). I was also married and now have a son called Matthew. Currently I am working on my debut E.P., a 6 track going under the working title of "All of us Mannequins". I play most instruments myself but am joined by the fabulous drumming talents of Aaron Kennedy, (5 dollar soul, Joshua's Promise), as well as recruiting a college classmate to play double bass on one track. The tracks on the E.P. will be (in no particular order): Beautiful (she knows) First Class Hero Candy Cane Euphemistic Appraisal Car Sick Widow's Star Music: I listen to loads of music, and I mean tons of it, all the time. I am one of those irritating people who gets genuinely excited by music even in a public place. The artists I am listing to at the moment are: Pedro the lion, Damien Jurado, Elliott Smith, Tom Waits, The Cure, Nicolai Dunger, Low, The Smiths, Red House Painters, Sparklehorse, Jeff Buckley, 5 dollar soul, Clem Snide and Weezer. At other times I listen to anything from Woody Guthrie to Linkin Park, Portishead to Eels or Gram Parsons to Alien Ant Farm. My Music: These days I have a pretty large song list (compared to previous months). I think that it runs at nearly 20 songs that are finished, and maybe another 10 or so that are on the way. All in all I think I have roughly about a good 1½ - 2 hours of completely original material. I am also prone to the odd cover (odd being the operative word), including, "Boys Don't Cry" by The Cure, "On the Nickel" by Tom Waits and a brief bout of the Smiths' "I Know It's Over", to name but a few. I hope this meandering rubbish has enlightened you as to who I am and what I do. The E.P. Will hopefully be finished before the summer and a release date will be announced as and when I am aware of the time. I pray that this music that was given to me will touch everyone who hears it. Trying his best for a forgiving master Jamie Sturt
